Week six of Active Body Active Mind included a rugby session held by Simon O’Hara in Waterford City Rugby Club. Three women from The Waterford City team also participated in the session to show the group how it is done!
None of the seven participants had ever tried Rugby before and some were curious to see how rough it really is! The session included a warm up followed by a demonstration of the basic skills involved in Rugby. At the end of the session a game of tag rugby was played and some of the participants showed great potential. The women from the Rugby Club told the group about their positive experiences of playing women’s Rugby and invited them to watch their game this coming Sunday 13th October.
Well done to all our ABAM participants for trying out the sport and getting stuck in!
Week seven will see the ladies taking part in a recycling workshop on Tuesday and a Boxing session on Thursday.
